I have just released the latest beta, 4.61.3.
I would particularly like clamd users and Postfix users to test this 
release, please.

Download as usual from www.mailscanner.info.

New additions in this beta versus the previous beta are:
3 'MailScanner --lint' now finds clamd virus scanner.
3 Made clamd subsys lock file blank by default, so it works on non-Linux
  systems.
3 Added another example to the Allowed Sophos Error Messages setting for
  password-protected files.
3 Fixed "identified/found" bug in AVG parser.
3 Fixed bugs in Panda and AVG parsers courtesy of Rick Cooper.
3 Fixed bug in Postfix handler which caused a problem with empty
messages.

The entire Change Log for this version is currently:

* New Features and Improvements *
1 Direct support for the "clamd" virus scanner -- now talks directly to
the
  clamd daemon without any overhead of calling clamd-wrapper or
clamdscan.
  As a result, this should be faster than the previous clamd support.
  It also has a much smaller memory footprint than the "clamavmodule" 
scanner.
  This is all thanks to Rick Cooper who wrote the original code.
  New configuration options are
  - Clamd Port = 3310
  - Clamd Socket = /tmp/clamd
  - Clamd Lock File = /var/lock/subsys/clamd
  - Clamd Use Threads = no
  The use of these settings is explained in the MailScanner.conf file.
2 Changed session handling in direct clamd virus scanner support.
3 'MailScanner --lint' now finds clamd virus scanner.
3 Made clamd subsys lock file blank by default, so it works on non-Linux
  systems.
3 Added another example to the Allowed Sophos Error Messages setting for
  password-protected files.

* Fixes *
2 Fixed bug in auto-zip feature with a message containing 2 attachments
with
  the same filename.
2 Fixed bug in auto-zip feature that would allow zipping of an
attachment
  which had been cleaned out of the message.
3 Fixed "identified/found" bug in AVG parser.
3 Fixed bugs in Panda and AVG parsers courtesy of Rick Cooper.
3 Fixed bug in Postfix handler which caused a problem with empty
messages.
